Glass houses: There are 20 buildings made of bottles in the complex
Built using more than a million beer bottles, this incredible temple in the north-east of Thailand is a novel way to recycle any empties.
The resident Buddhist monks at the Wat Pa Maha Chedi Kaew complex encourage local authorities to deposit any used bottles at the temple which they then use to build new structures.
Having already built the a temple and even shelters, the monks who live in the town of Khun Han really have got into the spirit of recycling.

Room with an interior view: The visitors' toilets are a unique spectacle
Bottle caps were used to make this decoration inside the temple
so much better then our buddha tooth temple that waste so much money.
